Charlie & Ali

We’re Charlie and Ali. Since January 2015, we’ve been making sandwiches and welcoming neighbors into our little corner of Portland.

Our dining room is full of things we love: local character, well-loved finds, and people who come back hungry. Grab a seat inside, settle onto the patio when the weather’s right, or take something good to go.

Come as you are. We’ll take care of lunch.

Good food brings people together

Office lunch, a family gathering, or a reason to get everyone around the table. Bring Charlie’s to your next get-together.
